Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 1 year old. In recent days, the child told me her ears are a bit painful. I noticed that occasionally there is also some yellow fluid leaking out. At the same time, there is also some low fever. Please ask: How should otitis media with ear fullness and pain be treated effectively in children?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if it is otitis media in children, symptomatic treatment with antibiotics for the child can be quite effective. In addition, local treatment can also be performed, such as using anti-inflammatory ear drops for the child. When the child's ear pain is severe, mild analgesics can be used in moderation. If the child also has a fever, some fever-reducing drugs can be taken. However, in cases of high fever, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible. If there is a perforation of the eardrum, parents can consider surgical treatment for the child. During the treatment period, it is also important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
